K. NARAYAN was born on October 10, 1906, in Madras, South India, and educated there and at Maharaja’s College in Mysore. His first novel, Swami and Friends (1935), and its successor, The Bachelor of Arts (1937), are both set in the fictional territory of Malgudi, of which John Updike wrote, “Few writers since Dickens can match the effect of colorful teeming that Narayan’s fictional city of Malgudi conveys; its population is as sharply chiseled as a temple frieze, and as endless, with always, one feels, more characters round the corner.” Narayan wrote many more novels set in Malgudi, including The English Teacher (1945), The Financial Expert (1952), and The Guide (1958), which won him the Sahitya Akademi (India’s National Academy of Letters) Award, his country’s highest honor. His collections of short fiction include A Horse and Two Goats, Malgudi Days, and Under the Banyan Tree. Graham Greene, Narayan’s friend and literary champion, said, “He has offered me a second home. Without him I could never have known what it is like to be Indian.” Narayan’s fiction earned him comparisons to the work of writers including Anton Chekhov, William Faulkner, O.

  • A Comparative Study of Marathi and English Languages
    RESEARCH PAPER Arts Volume : 6 | Issue : 2 | FEBRUARY 2016 | ISSN - 2249-555X A Comparative Study of Marathi and English Languages KEYWORDS Mr. Rajendra K. Tambile Assistant Professor Department of English Chhatrapati Shivaji College, Satara ABSTRACT A comparative study includes both similarities and differences. The minimum need of a comparative study is the binary concern to meet the full demands of comparison. Etymologically, the term means any literary work that compares. This study intends to compare Marathi and English languages through the illustrations of structure and style of both languages. Marathi is a regional language but it is not going ahead by the experimenta- tion in the use of language. For instance, Bhalachandra Nemade has exercised verbless language in his novel ‘Kosala’. Many sentences in the novel are verbless but they make a complete sense without any difficulty to the reader. There are no articles in Marathi which have an important place at the structural level in English. We cannot find a single printed page in English without the use of articles. Marathi doesn’t have such structural category. The prepositions in Marathi do not occur in isolation, while they are attached to the concerned words. English prepositions are highly pro- ductive and they occur as free morphemes. A number of phrases have been formed by using prepositions in English. Marathi has three namely present, past and future but English has subtenses for each of the main tense. There is inter- ference to the learners of English whose mother tongue in Marathi. Even the Indian poet Nissim Ezekiel has omitted articles in English in some of his poems.

  • The History of the Bengali Language
    THE HISTORY OF THE BENGALI LANGUAGE THE HISTORY OF THE BENGALI LANGUAGE BY BIJAYCHANDRA MAZUMDAR, LBCTUBEB IN THF; DEPARTMENTS OF COMPARATIVE PHILOLOGY, ANTHROPOLOGY AND INDIAN VERNACULARS, CALCUTTA UNIVERSITY PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF CALCUTTA 19:20 PRINTED BY ATULCHANDRA BHATTACHARYYA AT THE CALCUTTA UNIVERSITY PRESS, SENATE HOUSE, CALCUTTA PREFACE The following lectures on the History of the Bengali Language are intended to give a sketch, in broad outline, of the origins of that language and the various influences, linguistic, ethnic, social, that shaped and moulded its earlier history. One essential requirement of a scientific procedure of this I in an investigation sort, have steadily kept in view. The ethnic as well as the social history of a people or group of peoples must corroborate and light up the linguistic history, if the latter is to be rescued from the realm of prehistoric romance to which the story of philo- logical origins, as so often told, must be however reluctantly assigned by the critical or scientific historian of to-day. One or two incidental results of my application of this anthropological test may be here mentioned. I have had no occasion to invent different Aryan belts for the imaginary migratory movements of some unknowable patois-speaking hordes, to account for the distinctive and peculiar pheno- mena of the provincial languages or dialects, e.g., those of Bengal : they are fitly explained by the successive ethnic contacts and mixtures with neighbouring or surrounding indigenous peoples. Similarly I have had no hesitation in recognizing within proper limits, the principle of miscege- nation in the growth of language, as of race, provided that the organic accretions from outside grow to the living radicle or nucleus which persists as an independent or individual entity.

Patel and Mrs Roda Chinoy for some of the stories included in the text. She is also thankful to Shri K. Mohan of the Archeological Survey of India, for making available certain books required for consultation and his help in the selection of photographs and to Shri Mohan Rakesh and Shri Naval Kishore for their help in the identification of some Sanskrit names of plants. Special thanks are due to Prof. Dr Heinz Mode, Professor of Oriental Archeology, University of Halle, and German Democratic Republic and to Dr. C.

The writer is also grateful to the Archeological Survey of India, New Delhi for permission to reproduce the photographs of Indian sculpture included in the text. FOREWORD In India trees and plants have been adored not only with devotion but have been affectionately fondled and almost treated as members of a family. Kalidasa mentions kindly spirits like Vanadevatas, who had been companions of Sakuntala in the forest, almost shedding tears when she left her sylvan home for her residence in the palace of her husband, the king, and hastened to give her presents of silken garments and jewels worthy of a princess.

While the texts of the grammarians Pāṇini and Patañjali provide some inkling of the end of the canonization process, Pāṇini’s date remains uncertain and Patañjali’s (150 BCE) is too late. However, looking at the problem both from a macro-Indian and a comparative Southwest Asian point of view provides indications of when and how canonization took place in Vedic India, and in Zoroastrian Iran. A key factor in this development was the little understood role of Gandhāra, a Persian province from c.
